Scan Classes

Scan classes are defined in the startup file. Each /F= parameter defines a
scan class, which is numbered in order.

For example, if the .bat file reads
/F=2 /F=1:00 /F=1:30:00 /F=00:00:05,00:00:01
then these scan classes have been defined:

Scan Class 1 has a scan period of 2 seconds.

Scan Class 2 has a scan period of 60 seconds.

Scan Class 3 has a scan period of 5400 seconds (90 minutes).

Scan Class 4 has a scan period of 5 seconds, with an offset of 1
second.

Polled Tags

Polled tags are read once every scan period. To set up a polled tag, set
Location1 to match the /ID parameter, Location3=0, and
Location4=scanclass#.

For example:
